The chef that creates the best taco of the day will win the title of grand champion and a trip to compete in The Taco Festival Grand Finale.

Some of the most interesting creations Tyda has seen at taco festival across the country include a foie gras taco in a crepe shell, a Korean-style fried chicken taco in a lettuce shell and an ice cream taco in a waffle cone shell.

He admits that he's never seen a crawfish taco or a boudin taco though.

"I like to think that tacos are the most adapted and adaptable cuisine in the world," Tyda says. "Yes, there's a tradition to protect and a gastronomic genealogy to be aware of, but the beauty of tacos is that it's a let-your-hair-down, relax-with-your-friends kind of food."

Wash down all the tacos at the tequila expo. A tasting pass costs $20 for 10 samples.
